Q438: How many 9th-level spells does an 18th-level battle sorcerer (UA 56) with the Domain Access ACF (CC 52) know? I ask because each ACF reduces spells known by 1 per level, and an 18th-level sorcerer only knows 1 9th-level spell. So would he know:

• Only his Domain Access spell?
• None (-1 plus his Domain Access Spell)?
• -1 (and how would that even work)?

A438

A battle sorcerer knows fewer spells per spell level than a standard sorcerer. Subtract one spell known from each spell level on Table: Sorcerer Spells Known (to a minimum of one spell per spell level).

The battle sorcerer still knows at least 1 spell of 9th level. Since the Domain Access ACF doesn't have a minimum, it swaps that one spell for a Domain spell, as normal. He doesn't learn a new spell at level 19.


Since the battle sorcerer is the base class and Domain Access is the ACF, the ACF modifies battle sorcerer and not vice versa.
